15:25Now PlayingWhat is it that precedes politics, underlies our constitution, and gives us a chance to be prosperous and free? The rule of law. We can best understand contemporary threats to that freedom and prosperity by reminding ourselves of the moral and intellectual fundaments of our political order.
Timothy Snyder is a historian at Yale University, specializing in eastern Europe, totalitarianism, and the Holocaust. His books have received widespread acclaim. His most recent book, "The Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America," tells the whole Russia story, from beginning to end, in a way that makes sense and reveals the big picture. He is also the author of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century," which explores the everyday ways a citizen can resist the authoritarianism of today. His other works include "Black Earth: The Holocaust as History and Warning" and "Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin."
